Your memories make you who you are. But what if they aren't yours? When Seattle detective Kjell Lindgren discovers a woman's corpse with her hippocampus surgically removed, he enters a nightmare where memories can be extracted, preserved, and transferred between minds. The victim clutches a child's ballet shoe-a key to memories someone was willing to kill for. Dr. Thora Holmquist knows why the killer targets memory. For thirty-four years, she's carried her dead sister's consciousness-the result of brutal experiments that transformed children into living memory banks. As Seattle's leading expert on memory recovery, she helps patients uncover repressed trauma. But now her patients are dying, their recovered memories stolen with surgical precision. The investigation reveals a conspiracy decades in the making. The Uppsala experiments of 1991 didn't end-they evolved. A shadow organization has been perfecting consciousness transfer, preparing to trigger the next stage of human evolution. Their weapon: a network that can connect every human mind on Earth, willing or not. As bodies pile up, each victim's death brings the killer closer to Thora. But when her brilliant sixteen-year-old daughter begins showing signs of integration-her mind connecting to others without her consent-Thora faces an impossible choice. She can use her unique neural architecture to stop the network, but it means hosting ten thousand consciousness streams simultaneously. Survive, and she saves humanity's right to individual thought. Fail, and she becomes patient zero for the forced evolution of the species. Racing against a countdown to global consciousness merger, Thora must navigate a world where anyone could be hosting someone else's mind, where preserved consciousnesses of the dead influence the living, and where the line between self and other dissolves with every passing hour. From the rain-soaked streets of Seattle to quantum computing facilities in Beijing, THE MEMORY THIEF delivers a chilling vision of humanity's next evolutionary leap-one where memory becomes currency, consciousness becomes fluid, and the most dangerous question isn't who you are, but who remembers being you. Read THE MEMORY THIEF now and discover why your thoughts may not be your own.
